The Ju-52 first flew in 1930 as a single engine civil aircraft. Before long it was given two more engines and designated Ju-52/3m (German - drei motoren - "three engines"). The 3-engine aircraft was originally designed as a 17 passenger airliner. The principal user was Lufthansa that flew in Europe, Asia and South America. In the mid 1930’s a military version was produced and the Ju-52 became one of the most reliable transport aircraft. The Ju-52 saw service with military and civilian air fleets well into the 1980s.

This Ju-52 was manufactured as W-Nr. 6660 and registered as TA+BX. It was one of the many that were pressed into service by the Nazi government when they came into power. It now belonged to Sanitäts-Flugbereitschaften 3 "Sanitary Evacuation Unit 3" and displayed the Red Cross to show it was a non-combatant aircraft. This aircraft as well as others were responsible for transporting wounded soldiers and were referred to as Sanitäts Ju-52s. In April 1942 D-TABX crashed after a mid-air collision near Fürstenwalde.
